🌱 Your logic vs intuition (how to have both)

Hey friends. Here are your 3 insights in 3 minutes.

🔗 LinkedIn

I received a bunch of messages and comments about this LinkedIn post below.

Here’s the thing, LinkedIn is sorta (read: mostly) cringy. 

But the best way to find interesting people is to just share what you think is interesting (in your own voice). 

However, “post more on LinkedIn” is a daunting and “invisible” task.

So, to make the invisible, more visible…

I set up a simple tracker. 

Targeting 10 posts for December and will adjust as we go.

🤔 Thinking vs Talking 

Some people “talk to think” and others “think to talk.”

I “write to think to talk.”

But my best thoughts come from walking. So it actually looks like: 

Walk→ think → write→ talk (and the cycle repeats) 

How do you best communicate?

☯️ Logic vs Intuition

Starting to think about 2025 and what feels most alive for me. 

On a walk (to think), I brainstormed: 

“What are the logical opportunities that make the most sense for me? And what are the intuitive opportunities that just feel right?”

Here’s what I came up with on a 20-minute walk.

Logical: 

• Copywork: For how much I write and enjoy writing, I should (dangerous “s” word, don’t tell my therapist) explore copywriting further and do more copywork of my favorite writers. 

• Health/Nutrition: Since reading “The 4-Hour Body” in 2016 I started the slow carb diet (not trying to lose weight, just out of curiosity but then loved it), however never talked to a nutritionist or had extensive testing done (InsideTracker, Dexa scan, etc.)

Intuitive 

• Personal podcast: I love curiosity conversations with interesting people (btw I’m starting to release consistent episodes now, subscribe/review Apple podcast or Spotify!)

• Workshops/talks/events: I’ve given 3-4 guest lectures at UT Business School and love doing it each semester. I recently hosted a hike with friends. I gave a roundtable talk in Dublin. I want to do more of this stuff in 2025!

• Life Systems: I co-host weekly Life Systems event in Austin. I wrote about Life Systems and the template here and love talking with people about this.

What’s on your logical vs intuitive list? (Hit reply and let me know.)

Salud,
